The name “Santa Fe Trail” first appeared in print in 1825, being mentioned in the Missouri Intelligencer and Boon’s Lick Advertiser.1 Prior to and after this date, the road was known by a variety of names on maps, in the contemporary press, and in later books and articles. These names included the “Mexican Road,” “Mexican Trail,” “Spanish Trace,” “Santa Fe Trace,” “Santa Fe Road,” “Road to Santa Fe,” “Road to Independence,” “Missouri Wagon Road,” “Road from Santa Fe, N.M to Kansas City, Mo,” and “Road from Santa Fe, N.M. to Independence, Mo.”2 Whatever its name, the route of this trail between the Missouri River and the Rio Grande was a highway for travel and communication between these two areas of North America. It was the first great Euro-American land trade route. From 1825 to 1827, it was the first major road network to be surveyed west of Missouri, and as such, it was a template for future road development. The Santa Fe Trail differed from the Oregon, California, Mormon, and other trails which served as highways for emigrants bound for new homes in the far West. The bulk of traffic along the Santa Fe Trail, especially prior to 1848, consisted of civilian traders – Hispanic and American – with some military traffic and few emigrants. Soon after Mexican Independence in 1821, the Santa Fe Trail evolved into an international trade route linking the United States with Santa Fe in northern Mexico. Enhancing its international aspect, the Santa Fe Trail connected the eastern US – via the Boonslick Road in Missouri – with the pre-existing El Camino Real de Tierra Adentro (the “King’s Road” or “Royal Road to the Interior”), which linked Santa Fe with central Mexico. Much emphasis is placed on the importance of the Euro-American traders to the Santa Fe Trail, but historian Ross Frank notes in his book From Settler to Citizen that “the late colonial [1750-1820] economic development of the province may well have provided a compelling reason for the attraction of New Mexico to American merchants as the major point of overland trade connecting Mexico and the United States after 1821.”3 The importance of Mexican markets and merchants in the economic system that helped create and sustain the trade cannot be overlooked. The Santa Fe Trail was an important link in a large and complex commercial network that connected two continents – Europe and North America – and several countries, including the United States, Mexico, England, and France. Traders in Missouri were tied to merchants, manufacturers, and wholesalers in St. Louis, Pittsburgh, New York City, Baltimore, and other eastern cities, who in turn were connected to merchants in Europe, especially London and Liverpool. Likewise, traders from Santa Fe were linked to Chihuahua, Durango, and other communities to the south along El Camino Real, as well as California to the west. Some of the imports arriving in Santa Fe continued south into central Mexico where many of the goods that were shipped northeast out of Santa Fe originated. In 1848, following US victory in the Mexican-American War, the United States’ Territory of New Mexico was created. The focus of the trail at this time began to shift to domestic trade and communication across the expanding country.

VOL. Denver, Colorado, November, 1924 NO. 7 Spanish Expeditions Into Colorado:f. By Alfred Barnaby Thomas, M. A., Berkeley, California. I. INTRODUCTION We customarily associate Spanish explorations in the West with New Mexico, with Texas, with Arizona, or with California, but not with Colorado. Yet Spaniards in the eighteenth century were well acquainted with large portions of the region now com­ prised in that state. Local historians of Colorado often err by pushing the clock too far back, and asserting that Coronado, Oriate, and other sixteenth century conquistadores entered the state. On the other hand, they fail to mention several important expeditions which at a later date did enter the confines of the state. An Outpost of New Mexico.-The Colorado region in Span­ ish days was a frontier of New Mexico. Santa Fe was the base for Colorado as San Agustin was for Georgia. Three interests especially spurred the New Mexicans to make long journeys northward to the Platte River, to the upper Arkansas in central Colorado, and to the Dolores, Uncomphagre, Gunnison, and Grand Rivers on the western borders. These interests were Indians, French intruders, and rumored mines. After 1673 reports of Frenchmen in the Pawnee country constantly worried officials at Santa Fe. Frequently tales of gold and sil'ver were wafted southward to sensitive Spanish ears at the New Mexico capital.

    1 Visualizing Equestrianism’s Violent Influences upon Eighteenth-century Native North America: Revisiting the Segesser Hide Paintings Ned Blackhawk History and American Studies Yale University Working Draft: Please do not cite without permission Readers unfamiliar with the images in question may be interested in the documentary linked below at: http://wn.com/MOMENTS_IN_TIME_%7C_New_Mexico's_Segesser_Hide_Paintings_ %7C_KNME Efforts to revise the temporal and spatial parameters of American history have cast asunder the field’s normative beginnings. Indeed, not long ago, according to one recent assessment, “early America history looked almost nothing like it looks today. The cast of characters was small—mostly English and mostly male—and early America was nearly synonymous with the thirteen colonies. The French, Spanish, and Dutch colonial empires were there in the picture, but mainly as a hazy backdrop of hostility: they were threats to the English America that alone led the continent to its distinctive path to modernity.”1 American Indian historians have figured prominently in such revision. In the past two decades, the fields of U.S. western, American Indian, and Spanish borderlands history have increasingly embraced one another and ushered in a “continentalist” paradigm for assessing U.S. “colonial” history. Nowhere is such realignment more pronounced than in studies of the Trans-Mississippi West before Anglo-American 1 Pekka Hämäläinen, “Greater Than the Sum of Its Parts? Place, Power, and Narrative in Early American History,” (working draft in progress). 2 settlement. From Ramón A. Gutiérrez’s detailed analyses of gender relations within colonial New Mexico to Pekka Hämäläinen’s periodizaiton of the rise and fall of Comanche equestrianism, the history of the early American West has been fundamentally rewritten.

  • Promise Beheld and the Limits of Place
    Promise Beheld and the Limits of Place A Historic Resource Study of Carlsbad Caverns and Guadalupe Mountains National Parks and the Surrounding Areas By Hal K. Rothman Daniel Holder, Research Associate National Park Service, Southwest Regional Office Series Number Acknowledgments This book would not be possible without the full cooperation of the men and women working for the National Park Service, starting with the superintendents of the two parks, Frank Deckert at Carlsbad Caverns National Park and Larry Henderson at Guadalupe Mountains National Park. One of the true joys of writing about the park system is meeting the professionals who interpret, protect and preserve the nation’s treasures. Just as important are the librarians, archivists and researchers who assisted us at libraries in several states. There are too many to mention individuals, so all we can say is thank you to all those people who guided us through the catalogs, pulled books and documents for us, and filed them back away after we left. One individual who deserves special mention is Jed Howard of Carlsbad, who provided local insight into the area’s national parks. Through his position with the Southeastern New Mexico Historical Society, he supplied many of the photographs in this book. We sincerely appreciate all of his help. And finally, this book is the product of many sacrifices on the part of our families. This book is dedicated to LauraLee and Lucille, who gave us the time to write it, and Talia, Brent, and Megan, who provide the reasons for writing. Hal Rothman Dan Holder September 1998 i Executive Summary Located on the great Permian Uplift, the Guadalupe Mountains and Carlsbad Caverns national parks area is rich in prehistory and history.
